Samsung is restocking the Galaxy Z TriFold in the US again.

If you want a shot at buying the expansive, expensive, and discontinued foldable, it’s going on sale on Samsung’s website at 10AM ET on Friday morning. It will also be available at seven Samsung Experience retail stores, according to Phone Arena.

A February restock sold out in minutes, so this new one will probably clear out quickly, too.
